Mr. Houtz was driving a 2006 Chevrolet Trail Blazer south on Ohio-Indiana State Line when he lost control of the vehicle on a hill, causing the SUV to swerve off the east side of the road and go into a ditch. The SUV then overturned several times before coming to rest in the woods, troopers said.

Mr. Houtz was found 150 feet from the vehicle, at a spot where he apparently collapsed after getting out of the vehicle and crawling toward the road for help, troopers said.

Authorities were alerted to the crash about 8 a.m. Monday by the man's relatives who had been searching for him since Sunday when they filed a missing-person report, troopers said.
